5 1. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION 1.1. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES The Collaborative Grant Scheme represents the second part of the Serbia Research, Innovation and Technology Transfer Project (SRITTP) and is financed by the EU through Instrument for Pre-Accession (IPA) 2013 funds. The objectives of the Collaborative Grant Scheme are to: Create a strategic framework in Serbia for supporting R&D and innovation Promote cooperation between public Scientific Research Organizations and the private sector in order to improve research capabilities, strengthen SME capacities to innovate and increase business investment in R&D 1.2. AMOUNT AND TYPE OF FINANCING Through the Collaborative Grant Scheme program, the Innovation Fund (IF) will provide financing up to a maximum of 70% 1 of total costs of the Approved Project Budget, not to exceed EUR 300,000 per project. The Applicant consortia members are expected to provide mandatory co-financing for the project in the amount of at least 30% of total costs of the Approved Project Budget, from sources independent from the Innovation Fund or other EU donor programs. The financing approved by the Innovation Fund is based on specific needs of every project, as originally submitted by the Applicant through their Proposed Project Budget. However, the Innovation Fund reserves the right to specify or alter its final approved co-financing for the Project at the discretion of the Innovation Fund s independent Investment Committee. Continued financing of the Project for the second year (if applicable) will be subject to the IF s independent Investment Committee review, based on the submission of required documents upon completion of the third quarter of financing, as described in Section 5.4. Acceptable sources of co-financing include the Applicant s own cash resources, private investors, venture capital, private equity and private sector debt financing. Co-financing must exclude any other financing from the Innovation Fund or other EU donors. In-kind contributions are not allowed. The co-financing arrangements are to be defined by the consortia members among themselves prior to submitting the Project Proposal. Projects whose co-financing is dependent on several smaller entities where none have proven substantial relevant business experience or co-financing capabilities may be subject to greater scrutiny DURATION OF THE PROJECT Due to the predefined limited duration of the Serbia Research, Innovation and Technology Transfer Project, all projects financed through the Collaborative Grant Scheme must be designed for completion 1 Maximum percentage of IF financing varies depending on the specifics related to Applicants as defined in the section 1.5.

The Applicant has to secure these IP and know-how rights in agreements concluded with any third party. Regardless of which consortium members will have final ownership (and in what ratio) of IP created during and at the end of the project, all consortium members which have participated in the project must have the right to use the new IP free of any charge or restraint for their own respective fields of use (business). Any disputes regarding fields of use (business) among the consortia members need to be resolved prior to signing the Financing Agreement. The consortium members are required to reach a general agreement on any IP ownership and right of use details prior to applying for this program and accept all general IP-related principles listed here and in the Applicant Statement document.

In doing so, the Awardee shall avoid any conflict of interests and respect the following basic principles: Where the Awardee does not launch an open tender procedure it shall justify the choice of tenderers that are invited to submit an offer. The Awardee shall evaluate the offers received against objective criteria which enable measuring the quality of the offers and which take into account the price (the offer with the lowest price shall be awarded the highest score for the price criterion). The Awardee shall keep sufficient and appropriate documentation with regard to the procedures applied and which justify the decision on the pre-selection of tenderers (where an open tender procedure is not used) and award the decision. The Awardee may decide to apply the procurement procedures set forth in the Practical Guide. If these procedures are correctly followed the principles above will be deemed complied with. The IF may carry out ex post checks on Awardee's compliance with the principles above and the rules below. Failure to comply with these principles or rules would render the related expenditure ineligible for funding. The provisions of this section apply to contracts to be concluded by the Awardee's affiliated entity(ies). ELIGIBILITY FOR PROCUREMENT CONTRACTS The nationality rule Participation in tender procedures managed by the Awardee is open on equal terms to all natural and legal persons effectively established in a EU Member State or a country, territory or region mentioned as eligible by the relevant regulation/basic act governing the eligibility rules for the grant as per Annexes 5

10 a2a to the PRAG Practical Guide ( Tenderers must state their nationality in their tenders and provide the usual proof of nationality under their national legislation. This rule does not apply to the experts proposed under service tenders financed by the grant. The rule of origin If the basic act or the other applicable instruments so require, the tenderer must prove the origin 4 of the supplies acquired under the grant. Where rules of origin need to be respected 5, and the unit cost on purchase is above EUR 5,000, contractors must present proof of origin to the Awardee at the latest when the first invoice is presented. The certificate of origin must be made out by the competent authorities of the country of origin of the supplies and must comply with the rules laid down by the relevant Union legislation. Where supplies may originate from any country, no certificate of origin needs to be submitted. Exceptions to the rules on nationality and origin Where an agreement on widening the market for procurement of goods, works or services applies, access must also be open to nationals and goods originating from other countries under the conditions laid down in that agreement. In addition, in duly substantiated exceptional cases foreseen by the applicable regulations, in order to give access to nationals or goods originating from countries other than those referred to above in sections the nationality rule and rules of origin, derogation by the European Commission must be sought prior to the launch of the procedures. Organizational arrangements of the Awardees to conduct procurement shall take into consideration the need for economy, efficiency and transparency of the various procurement activities defined in the Project Proposal, their timing and quality of the procured goods and consultancy services. For contracts estimated to cost below EUR 10,000, the IF will verify the proof of purchase through a review of invoices and contracts and conducting on-site verifications on a sample basis. Procurement may be executed through telephone or verbal solicitations. For procurement of goods and services for contracts estimated to cost EUR 10,000 or more, the Awardees will be required to provide to the IF adequate documents pertaining to the conducted procurement procedure in accordance with PRAG. Only after obtaining the IF s written consent will the Awardee be allowed to finalize the procurement procedure and make corresponding payments. Awardees shall not award contracts to their parent or affiliate companies unless there is an established arm s length arrangement. 4 For the purpose of this annex, the term "origin" is defined in chapter 2 of Regulation (EC) No 450/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2008 laying down the EU Customs Code (Modernised Customs Code). 5 Under the CIR (i.e. not IPA I) and the EDF supplies may originate from any country if the amount of the supplies to be procured is below EUR 100,000 per purchase. 6

17 4. PROJECT PROPOSAL EVALUATION PROCESS The Innovation Fund has established a competitive international project evaluation process based on merit and quality. Assessment of Project Proposals is entrusted to the Innovation Fund s independent Investment Committee, which makes the final decision on financing via consensus. The Investment Committee is supported by international peer reviewers with both academic and entrepreneurial experience in relevant fields of business, science and technology ELIGIBILITY REVIEW Upon the expiration of the deadline for the call for proposals, an eligibility check is performed by the Innovation Fund staff for all submitted Project Proposals to determine whether the Applicants comply with all the eligibility criteria defined for the purpose of this program and completeness of the submitted Application. The eligibility review consists of consortium members background checks, including but not limited to, SBRA data, national registries, financial reports and balance sheets. The Innovation Fund reserves the right to request additional information from any of the consortium members in order to determine compliance with eligibility criteria listed under section 1.5. All eligible proposals are sent to the first round of evaluation, which is conducted by international technical peer reviewers before being assessed by the Investment Committee. Ineligible Applicants will be notified of their ineligibility by after the IF completes eligibility review of all submitted Applications TECHNICAL PEER REVIEW The Innovation Fund has a diverse pool of peer reviewers from all fields of business, science and technology. Each Project Proposal that successfully passes the eligibility check is assigned at least two independent and professional technical peer reviewers, which have ample international experience in business and technology in the field relevant to the Project Proposal assigned to them. Each proposal will undergo a technical peer review based on merits in individual categories and criteria, as well as holistically. This assessment is then presented to the Innovation Fund s independent Investment Committee PRE-SELECTION Following the technical review, the IF s independent Investment Committee will assess all Applications in accordance with the evaluation criteria stipulated in section 1.9 of this document based on merits in individual categories and criteria, as well as holistically. As a result of this evaluation process phase, the Investment Committee pre-selects proposals which will be further analyzed in greater depth.

The guidance on the content of the EMP is provided in the Serbia Research, Innovation and Technology Transfer Project s Environmental Management Framework available on-line ( In cases where a project requires an EMP and the Applicant does not prepare it in due time, that Application would become ineligible for further evaluation FINAL FINANCING DECISION The final decision for financing under the Collaborative Grant Scheme Program is made by the IF s independent Investment Committee, with the subsequent consent of the IF Board of Directors on the allocation of funds in accordance with the Investment Committee s decision. The IF s independent Investment Committee is responsible for selecting Awardees for financing based on the complete Application, the result of the technical peer reviewer feedback and the results of the IF on-site visit. Following the Investment Committee s decision to award financing and the consent of the IF Board of Directors, the Applicant will be notified about the positive decision on financing and subsequently offered to sign the Financing Agreement. In case any significant changes arise within the structure of a project that was approved for financing, the Investment Committee reserves the right to alter and adjust its decision in accordance with these changes. 5. IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING OF THE PROJECT 5.1. GENERAL IMPLEMENTATION PRINCIPLES The Awardee is required to carry out the project diligently, timely and efficiently in accordance with the terms of the Collaborative Grant Scheme and the Financing Agreement and with sound technical, economic, financial, managerial, environmental and social standards and practices. The Awardee is required to maintain adequate policies and procedures to enable the IF to monitor and evaluate the progress of the project and the achievement of its objectives, as well as financial transactions pertaining to the project. 14

19 The Awardee is required to carry out the project in accordance with the provisions of the Environmental Management Framework and the Environmental Management Plan (where applicable) and to take in a timely manner all measures to enable the IF to monitor the provisions of the Environmental Management Plan. The Awardee shall use the financing in accordance with the Approved Project Budget and maintain a financial management system and prepare financial statements in accordance with consistently applied accounting standards, both in a manner adequate to reflect the operations, resources and expenditures related to the project. The IF reserves the right to require Awardees to submit to the IF for prior approval all contracts with third parties related to the purchases of goods and/or services unless the contracts were approved prior to the signing of the Financing Agreement. The Awardee is required to strictly honor principles of transparency, business ethics, diligence and financial rationality when implementing the project. The Awardee shall enable the IF to review/monitor the implementation of the project, its operation and any relevant records and documents and prepare and furnish to the IF all such information as the IF shall reasonably request relating to the implementation of the project. The Awardee is required to implement the project in accordance with the Project Proposal. Any significant deviation from the Project Proposal (e.g. project is not on schedule for completion within timeframes defined in the Project Proposal, proposed milestones are not achieved) requires prior written consent of the IF DISBURSEMENT OF PROJECT FUNDS The Awardee (Lead Applicant) must open a dedicated project bank account where project financing from the IF and co-financing from the Awardee is transferred. This account must not be used for any other purpose except for implementation of the approved project. It is managed by the Lead Applicant, who bears full legal responsibility for this account, documents all the payments made to and from it and reports them back to the Innovation Fund. The project funds are disbursed on a quarterly basis. The IF s disbursement amount will cover up to seventy percent (70%) of the Approved Project Budget for the relevant quarterly period. However, prior to the second and any subsequent disbursement, the Awardee must submit, along with the quarterly progress and financial reports (including supporting documentation), a bank account statement showing that the Awardee has deposited in the dedicated account a minimum of thirty percent (30%) or higher (corresponding to the Approved Project Budget for the given quarter) of the total amount of funds requested for the particular quarterly period. Prior to disbursement of funds for certain items listed in the Approved Project Budget (e.g. goods and services of EUR 10,000 or more and goods and services that are not clearly described in the Approved Project Budget), the Awardee may be required to provide supporting documentation to the IF for prior approval showing that the procurement of goods and/or services has been conducted in line with procedural requirements. Prior to quarterly disbursement, the Awardee must submit quarterly progress and financial reports within two (2) weeks after the last 15

20 calendar day of the quarterly project period along with other required documentation. Upon review and approval of the reports by the IF, the Awardee will be eligible for disbursement for the next period. Disbursement for the last period of the project will be reduced by an amount of up to 10% of the total IF financing as per Approved Project Budget for the second year of the project (or for the first year of the project, where applicable) until the monitoring of the project is completed. The final disbursement for eligible expenses will be made upon review and approval of the final progress report and the quarterly financial report for the last project period and upon completion of the project in accordance with the provisions of the Financing Agreement and signing of the Final Settlement. The review and approval of the reports will take approximately three (3) weeks and may be subject to a monitoring visit from the Innovation Fund staff, if needed. All payments to the Awardees are made in Serbian Dinars at the official middle exchange rate of the National Bank of Serbia on the date of the disbursement. Awardee is allowed up to five percent (5%) expenses variations from the total Approved Project Budget within any of the major budget categories (the total budget allocation cannot be exceeded). Should the expenses variations related to any major budget category be expected to exceed five percent (5%) during the course of the project, a written request for funds reallocation must be submitted for the IF approval. The IF reserves the right to suspend or terminate the financing under the Financing Agreement, or obtain a refund of all or any part of the amount of the financing disbursed, in the event that the Awardee fails to perform any of its obligations under the Financing Agreement MONITORING PROCEDURES AND PRINCIPLES The Innovation Fund serves as the primary entity in charge of monitoring the usage of funds and overall compliance of its Awardees within the Collaborative Grant Scheme. The fundamental monitoring principles for all financed projects are: Zero tolerance for any deviations by the Awardee from any relevant Serbian law; Compliance with all requirements stated within the Collaborative Grant Scheme s Grant Manual and the Financing Agreement; Transparency in financial and operational management of the project; Good corporate governance by the Awardee; Adherence to social and gender equality and non-harmful environmental policies; Timely reporting by the Awardee. The Innovation Fund reserves the right to require supplemental documentation from the Awardee at all times, relevant to the project or the Awardee itself. Monitoring methods include: Review of quarterly financial and progress reports; On-site visits, where and when required; 16

21 Review of final progress report; Ad-hoc visits by auditors, specialists or other entities defined by the IF, CFCU, Delegation of the European Union to the Republic of Serbia or the World Bank, pertaining to various aspects and requirements of projects financed under the Collaborative Grant Scheme REPORTING The Awardee is obligated to provide the Innovation Fund with truthful, timely and coherent quarterly financial and progress reports pertaining to the project, in predefined intervals. Two (2) weeks after the last calendar day of each quarterly period (i.e. every 3 months), the Awardee needs to submit the quarterly progress and financial report (including all supporting documentation) to the Innovation Fund for review. This is followed by the monitoring visit (where applicable) that may be conducted by the IF staff or its representatives. Upon review and approval of the reports and subject to positive outcome of the monitoring visit, the Awardee will be eligible for disbursement for the next period. Quarterly progress report and Financial report need to be submitted both electronically, through the Innovation Fund s portal, as well as in hard copy, signed and stamped by the Awardee s authorized representative. Following the Innovation Fund s review of this reporting documentation, for any deviations in the quarterly progress- and/or financial report that are unintentional or technical mistakes and are not a result of the Awardee s mismanagement of financials or project activities, the Awardee will be required to update the quarterly progress and/or financial report and resubmit it to the IF as per IF written notice. Additional check-ups by the IF may be made. The payment will be made after the updated progress and/or financial report are approved by the Innovation Fund. Quarterly progress and financial reports must be accompanied with copies of invoices and bank account statement relevant for the previous period. Bank account statements need to show all relevant transactions related to submitted invoices. Furthermore, dedicated bank account statements have to show that the Awardee has secured and deposited necessary co-financing required for the next period. This supporting documentation is to be provided in electronic form only. In addition to the formal reports required under the Financing Agreement, it is the Awardee s obligation to report significant project events to the IF, positive or otherwise. As a contributor to the project, the IF would like to be kept abreast of the project status. In the event of favorable variations or unforeseen problems, the IF s early awareness will enable the IF management to work with the project team in implementing any necessary changes to program activities, including re-scheduling and re-budgeting. Any changes to the project (e.g. regarding project implementation, timelines, project budget, deliverables, project staff, etc.) should be communicated to the IF in writing as they require the IF s written consent. Such changes may not be effective before the written consent is issued to the Awardee. 17
